Frequently Asked
Questions
What is your minimum order quantity?
Our MOQ is one 20 ft container (approx 7 MT). LCL shipments can be arranged for high-value orders.
Why use carton packing?
Star Anise is fragile. Cartons protect the star shape (flower) from crushing during transit, which is crucial for Grade A quality.
Do you supply Broken Star Anise?
Yes, we supply Broken / Petal grades which are cost-effective and perfect for grinding into powder or extraction.
What is the moisture content?
We ensure moisture is below 13.5% to prevent fungal growth during sea freight.
Is it suitable for pharmaceutical use?
Yes, our Star Anise is rich in shikimic acid, a key ingredient for Tamiflu and other pharmaceutical applications.
What are your payment terms?
For new buyers: LC at sight or 30% advance with balance against documents. Negotiable for long-term partners.
